Configuring “Print Colour Accounting” 

 

Model Name: ARPE1, 

ARPE2. 

 
Overview: 

Within the print driver of the ARC150/160/250, you can select to print either 
using CMYK or Greyscale. If “CMYK” mode (default setting) is selected from 
within the application, pages containing greyscale or black and white data will 
be counted as full colour. When “Greyscale” is selected, the copier will print 
all the pages in monochrome and counts the job as a B/W print.  

 
 

If the Job Log data for the Fiery Print Controller is viewed, the Colour and 
B/W page counts are displayed separately. 

 
 

To configure the AR-C150/160/250 models to count both colour and 
monochrome pages separately, enable the “Print Counter Accounting” 
feature as follows (converts the print engine from a “Document printer” to a 
“Page printer”):- 

 
Procedure: 

1. 

ALL engine firmware must be at the following version(s) or higher:-

Downloader or Command Workstation, and reboot the controller.

the “Update Information” heading, the PS file (patch) is listed.
